I think the missing key there is the independent statically built binary for apt that does not depend on pretty much any part of the base system actually functioning. That’s what I couldn’t find, is there one and I just suck at Google?

pacman is the best and I’ll stubbornly refuse to entertain any other opinion. It’s in my experience the least likely to just randomly rip the system to shreds. I don’t know if it has more through prechecks or what bit I’ve had debian and Fedora (apt and dnf) rip the system asunder trying to jump multiple major versions in an update of a system that hadn’t been online in a long time.

I don’t care if jumping multiple releases at once “isn’t supported” it shouldn’t be that frail and arch will happily update something many years behind as long as you update the keyring.

Even in the event your system somehow does get hosed you can fix almost everything by just chrooting in, grabbing the static pacman binary, and running “pacman -Qqn | pacman -S -” I’ve recovered systems that had the entire /bin wiped (lol oops moment with a script) and as far as i know apt and dnf have no equivalent easy redo all.

Already mentioned and ruled out unfortunately, unless you can find some documentation we couldn’t

None of the features i need exist in the community edition unfortunately. https://h-mdm.com/headwind-mdm-version-comparison/

Which seems to be a common thread with the “open source” mdms. Over half the actual useful mdm features are not available for the self hosted version

In what way? Why does management of tablets inherently require paying a third party to run the software

One of the documentation is mostly useless ones. Maybe I’m blind but i searched for 5min to try and find any instructions at all for their official docker image and found nothing. Seems they only want you using the cloud now even if you self host as i can only find aws or render documentation, there is also kubernetes but I do not have a kubernetes setup nor do I want one for just this single application.

Guess i can try to muck through the docker without instructions and hope it’s simple enough without any gotcha steps.

Personally what I do and what I would recommend is putting the reverse proxy on the VPS and having it reach out to the services over the VPN, rather than for security this is for performance reasons. Caddy and nginx reverse proxies can both be setup to cache static content. This helps remove the delay of reaching out over the vpn for some things and in my experience made a noticeable performance difference in services that had cachable content.

I mean i understand praising it, i still primarily use plex despite their Shenanigans and will VPN to bypass the remote streaming charge. I still have jellyfin installed but it has several issues for me still.

I have quite a large library and I still regularly have issues with matching especially on anime. It will either fail to match at all until I do it manually, or match incorrectly and I will have to manually correct it. I still frequently have playback issues for no apparent reason especially on Android where I will hit a file that just refuses to play back for no apparent reason with none of the error logs being particularly helpful on files that play perfectly in Plex with absolutely no issues, I have also been affected by the memory leak problem that has plagued many a jellyfin user. Where even if you’d simply turn the server on and never play any files it just randomly keeps growing in size more and more and more over time until the server hits oom even on a server with 128GB. This has been reported by so many users but the developers just seem uninterested in tracking it down. I have both friends and family that use my server and the device support is basically everything even remotely capable of media playback for Plex but is unfortunately just not as robust for jellyfin.

I know that in this particular subreddit I’m likely to just get downloaded for saying it but sometimes the open source solution just isn’t as good and this is definitely one of those cases. It’s been getting better has time goes on but it’s not a solid replacement yet for a lot of cases

what are you using swap for

I don’t even see a child character? I feel like I’m missing something here but I went and checked the ffmpeg documentation because they are using Anubis and it appears to just be a generic chibi Style character that looks to be maybe early twenties style adult.

Do you just assume that any cartoon character is underaged? There’s literally no indication that that character is in any way underaged whatsoever, it appears to be a standard chibi-style depiction of a generic adult.

I think you may need to consult a therapist or other mental health professional if literally every depiction of a cartoon character in a Chibi art style causes you to see pedophilia

Rustdesk, open source, cross platform, self-hostable, and at least in my experience works great

You would, it’s very very straightforward they made it very simple. I literally walked multiple non-technical users through it when it happened because I have moved some of my friends and family to Linux. I won’t say that it wasn’t tedious and that it wasn’t annoying for them but they got through it just fine

I literally consider Debian to be less functionally stable than arch because of Apt. I’ve had apt completely eviscerate systems and then just bail out leaving you with a system that has a completely empty /bin with seemingly no easy way to recover.

Meanwhile pacman has literally never done that, and even on systems that became horrifically broken due to literal data corruption I was able to just chroot in, download a static built pacman, and reinstall all native packages with a single command… It’s nuts how much more reliable and repairable arch ia but people act like it’s frail just because it gets updates more than once every century

Tldr it’s cache, its a GOOD thing and you WANT it to happen. The memory is available if applications need it

Seafile is another to check. It’s focused entirely on the file storage aspect and doesn’t really do all the other stuff next Cloud does but I greatly prefer it

I tried so many different office chairs, they all sucked. Even the more expensive ones. But the “secret labs” gaming chair was perfect. Gives whatever support my fucked up spine needs, has the right mix of cush but firm. And the little magnetic pillow is in the perfect spot. It was very expensive but worth it to me.

Most gaming chairs are memes tho I’ll say

Depends entirely on what environment I’m in and to some degree even my mood. Sometimes you just want to slap some headphones on and erase the rest of the world. Sometimes you just want a more full rich experience where it feels the room you can move around freely. Sometimes it doesn’t matter at all

They are amazing but at the end of the day they are still humans and they can make mistakes. In the YouTube video referenced one of the C devs is heavily against rust.

Decided to go look for CVEs from code the guy manages (Ted Ts’o) I found these

CVE-2024-42304 — crash from undocumented function parameter invariants

CVE-2024-40955 — out of bounds read

CVE-2024-0775 — use-after-free

CVE-2023-2513 — use-after-free

CVE-2023-1252 — use-after-free

CVE-2020-14314 — out of bounds read

CVE-2014-8086 — race condition

CVE-2011-2493 — call function pointer in uninitialized struct

CVE-2009-0748 — null pointer dereference

Do you see a pattern in the type of error here? It’s pretty much entirely memory related and right in the wheelhouse of something rust would just outright not allow short of just slapping everything into unsafe blocks.

The Old Guard is not perfect, and they are acting as a barrier to new talent coming in. Sometimes change is good and I’m heavily in the camp that rust one of those times. Linus seems to agree as he allowed the code into the kernel which he would never do lightly or just because it’s fomo
